Now, Kate shares her inspiring story in this powerful memoir about motherhood and unconditional love. I remember vaguely coming across this page last summer as I was, and still am, trying to find out what our lives are going to look like. It's like splitting a room in half and saying, OK, this part is this half of the room is stupid and this is half the room is smart. I flew out there with a friend just for a nice weekend, met with the agent, submitted a proposal and signed my contract.

When my now ten year old was two I discovered her blog and found it helpful to know that I wasn’t alone.

None of the testimonials included within the Barbera Behavior Consulting Materials are from current clients.

Her memoir describes her emotions and feelings on the diagnosis process to the disappointment and huge levity that was placed on her discovering her child would have special needs. How hard it is working and trying to keep up with all the different services that she needs to access, to help him.You will laugh, you will cry, but most of all, you will understand, even just a little bit more, what this life is like from a parent's view.
